Brooks Saddles F/S or Possible Trade
After finding nether region nirvana on a Brooks Imperial saddle, I’d like to sell or trade either or both of these saddles for Brooks B-17 Imperials.
The one with the brass rivets is a Professional and is 155 mm across. The one with the steel(?) rivets is 144 mm across. I would say both are in 8/10 shape.
$75 shipped for the Professional
$60 shipped for the B-17.
If you want to do a trade for your Imperial, take some pics to let me see it. If a trade is agreed upon, we each pay for shipping to the other.
Thanks

@kroozer, not sure I want to ship out of country. Let’s give it a while to see if it sells stateside. If it goes to you total price may have to be adjusted if shipping costs out of country are higher.
Thanks

I would buy the B-17, but I am not totally comfortable jumping ahead of a buyer in a neighboring country. Based on a quick google search it looks like USPS shipping to Mexico is $30 to $50 more than fixed rate domestic, but I am not knowledgeable about this. If Kroozer is willing to pay the difference or knows of a less expensive alternative I would defer to him (or her).
